To get started, click this link to learn How to Use Submittable.
Tips for using the application portal:
- You will need to create a free Submittable account or sign in with Google or Facebook credentials to submit to these forms. You can create a free account here.
- When creating an account, you will need access to the email used for the login credentials for verification purposes. Once the email is verified, you can proceed to the application.
- It is advised to create a general email address for the organization to utilize when creating a Submittable account and developing a submission. This will allow access to the submission by multiple members of the organization by sharing login credentials.
- You can only have one active draft per login. If you are developing submissions for multiple organizations, you will need to either: work on one submission at a time in Submittable, create multiple logins to work on multiple submissions at a time in Submittable, or work on multiple submissions externally via Word documents before submitting on Submittable.
- You can save a draft of your work if you would like to finish filling out the form at a later date.
- Once you have submitted the application, you will be able to download a pdf copy of your information.
- Submittable works best on Google Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. Internet Explorer is not supported. Please make sure you are using a supported browser.
- We will follow up with you about your submission by email. Please be sure to safelist notification emails from Submittable and check the email you used to sign up for your Submittable Account regularly.

LCRA supports local communities in its service area with grants of up to $50,000 through the Community Grants program. Tax-exempt nonprofit organizations are eligible to apply, as well as city and county entities and special districts. Grant projects must improve the value of a capital asset by building, renovating or purchasing equipment, and must benefit an entire community. Applicants requesting more than $5,000 in grant funding must supply matching funds of at least 20% of the total project cost.
To celebrate the program’s 30th anniversary, LCRA also will award an additional grant of up to $100,000 in each of the July 2025 and January 2026 grant cycles.
